[Samsung Infuse 4G] DaveC1964:
Hi,

I should add that the device is factory stock!

No ROMs, no hacks, no root (actually that is why I wanted to connect, to root).

I should also add that all other devices connect fine, so it isn't the port.

I tried the error check thing in Kies and it says reinstalling drivers etc. It does that then comes up with a message " ERROR Reconnect the device in Samsung Kies (PC Studio) mode. Current connection mode not supported by Kies.

I an ready to go back to iPhone, at least that "just works". Arrrgh.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bignate78:
What system is on your PC?

Also search through xda for the drivers, people have posted them. Go into your pc and delete them then reinstall. Try that

[Samsung Infuse 4G] DaveC1964:
I tried that. Installed drivers from here, tried from Kies, all no good.

Sometime I might get it to see the phone as a drive, then I try it a different day and it is no good again, it "forgets". It is really flakey. I also tried two different cables, same result. If I reboot the computer I may get a connection once (I used this opportunity to root). If I disconnect and reconnect for whatever reason it either gives me an error or doesn't see the phone. Don't get it.

I am using Win7.

Have you tried different USB ports?

I had this happen last week. I uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers and kies, restarted the computer a few times and the phone as well. It don't seem like much but it worked. I still really don't know what happened.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] in99flames:
Hello! I have been researching this for a friend and figured I would try good old XDA. Here is the problem, after a forum search only one post had this problem but with no solution.

It is a bone stock 7 inch galaxy tab. It is running froyo and is prompted to download the gingerbread update. After the download, it will boot and start to flash, approx 1/3 of the way, the patching stops, an exclamation point appears then the tab reboots back to Froyo as the update has failed.

Any idea what is causing this? I have booted it into recovery and wiped data/cache and even SD card for good measure. It always does the same thing.

I am savvy with working on Motorola droids, but samsung is new to me. I did reading and found out about Heimdal and Odin. I believe this must be something like RSDlite that I use but am uncertain.

Anyways, how can i get this update to go through? can I retrieve the file after it downloads, change it to "update.zip" and flash it in recovery? The only thing I can think of is having him download the 2.3.5 Stock + root file from this thread. and flashing this in Heimdal.

What seems to be the best possible action here. Thanks :)

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bgcngm:
Hello there.

I have two devices that share almost the same hardware (same chipset, just different display), so I successfully ported framework from one to the other (G14 to G11i). The thing is that camera app from G11i had really nice features when compared to camera app from G14. Even more important than that is that auto-focus is not working any more, so I was trying to port that app as well. The thing is that the app doesn't appear on app drawer.

Can someone please guide me on what can be the cause for this? I have attached both apk's.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bgcngm:
Is there any developer willing to help?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bgcngm:
Here's a log while trying to install the Camera application.

Do you think this could be the problem why the app doesn't appears on the drawer (if I push it to /system/app)? How can I make the app signatures match those in android.media?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bgcngm:
I have managed to solve this problem by modifying AndroidManifest.xml and re-signing the application. This may be useful to others.

[Acer Iconia A500] xd4d3v:
I apologize in advance for the title, seems confusing but i'm unsure how to word it better.

We Share an A501 at home for a few apps and games.

Unfortunately all my info is in there and since Android doesn't support multiple users I thought a good way of doing this would be to use an alternate lockscreen (Like Widget locker) add a few widgets and apps in the lockscreen for everyone to use.

But you need to enter a password or pin to enter the device completely.

I've tried doing this with widget locker, but the problem is when I start an app from the lockscreen shortcut I get the Pattern prompt.

Any idea whether this is feasible?

Thanks
[Acer Iconia A500] chasmanian:
There's an app called seal that puts a password on individual apps. You can have a standard lockscreen, and just protect the apps you don't want anyone using.
[Acer Iconia A500] xd4d3v:
probably would be a lot of hassle as I'd need to protect 10+ apps and have to type the password myself everytime.
[Acer Iconia A500] Gster09:
It's actually not that bad. I use it to prevent my kids from opening bank apps and other non-games. I have it set up to prompt me for a pattern not an actual password. Try it!
[Acer Iconia A500] Nova5:
When you enter the password for an app any other protected app can be run within X time. after that you have to put the password in again.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vanisleryan:
Usin Odin Upgrade your PDA to JVT, use the JVK Modem and CSC, repartition with 512pit. Flash one of the root kernals in the above links in the PDA section of Odin. Now you will have JVT and option to use many custom roms...or just keep it on stock JVT.

Edit: I think the most recent modem upgrade for Austrialia is XXJVQ and CSC is VAUJV6. See firmware link above.

JVK is European. Youll most likely have better cell coverage if you use the modem and csc above. Flash with JVT PDA
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rytro1:
Do you know where to find JVK modem and csc?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vanisleryan:
Its all in Firmware Link.

Download the first download under Europe JVT 2.3.5...use only the PDA. You have to unzip it after you download it.

Dont use JVK if your in Australia...it will work but cell coverage most likely sucks.

Download the first download under Australia/NewZealand....it has the current Modem and CSC you should use. Unzip it and you will have your modem and csc

Put these in Odin with a 512pit....under how to Flash on the same link you will see a link for Odin with Pit files.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rytro1:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vanisleryan:
No worries....You can download the odin and pit files on same link...its right below how to flash...there is a link.

So remember you want to flash

XXJVT in PDA

SRJV1 in MODEM XXJVQ will work but seems like SRJV1 is recommended in Aus i9000 thread

VAUJV6 in CSC

512 pit in PIT

After flash, go into recovery and wipe data reset, wipe cache partition, and wipe Dalvik Cache.

Reboot, power down, back to Download mode flash either of the root kernals from links in first post. Flash in PDA.

When done you will have rooted phone with current JVT PDA with your proper modem and CSC.

EDIT :When your done you will be on 2.3.5 JVT more current and many more options for using custom roms.

Press start.

Wait till phone reboots.

Put SRJV1 in PHONE the one from the download under australia/newzealand modems.

Put the csc file from the Jvt download in csc....it says csc

put the 512 pit file in PIT

put phone in download mode and connect to computer.

it should take about 5 to 10 minutes. when its done it will say pass and reset. once the phone resets disconnect usb...it will take a few minutes to reboot....do this and tell me when done.

You probably have blue glow now when you go to the top and bottom of a menu....so our phone is working now you want to root. Lets just use a basic root.

Use the second link I gave you for root kernals ...CF root. Download it and unzip it.

once unzipped the file should look like this...

CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVT-v4.3-CWM3RFS

open ODIN again....if its still open reset it to clear all the old stuff out.

Put the root file in the PDA section.

Put phone in download mode

connect phone

port goes yellow

press start....this only takes about 10 seconds...it will say pass and reset.

once phone starts resetting disconnect from usb and let it power up.

you now will have a superuser app in your applications drawer, you are rooted.

The reason Im telling you to get 1.8.0 and not 1.9.0 is because the newer version doesnt give you a cwm app and superuser app. After you get rooted with the 1.8.0....you can flash the 1.9.0 if you want....theres some updated performance tweaks with it. when you upgrade from 1.8.0 to 1.9.0 cwm and superuser will remain....but if you go straight to 1.9.0 you wont have them unless you go and get them seperately.

You know cyangen mod is not based on samsung and requires its own different modems right.....it uses its own bootloaders, seperate from samsung. Its installed as a zip in cwm over JVT but honestly it can be a headache if not set up properly....why dont you check out some other roms in development section first. just make sure you use roms that are made for Jvt. Sometimes after you flash a rom it changes your modem....so if that happens your baseband version will be different in settings >phone. Just reflash your "modem" again. all by itself...nothing else. Glad your all set up, now the real fun begins....just read the tutorials and stickies.....remember as long as you can get into download mode you can flash the file we flashed today, again.
